Description
Fresh installation of Cassandra 5.0 fails to start with the following error:
ERROR [main] 2024-09-25 14:50:58,401 CassandraDaemon.java:900 - Exception encountered during startup java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError: null at org.apache.cassandra.service.CassandraDaemon.setupVirtualKeyspaces(CassandraDaemon.java:575) at org.apache.cassandra.service.CassandraDaemon.setup(CassandraDaemon.java:286) at org.apache.cassandra.service.CassandraDaemon.activate(CassandraDaemon.java:744) at org.apache.cassandra.service.CassandraDaemon.main(CassandraDaemon.java:878) Caused by: org.apache.cassandra.exceptions.SyntaxException: Failed parsing CREATE TABLE: [CREATE TABLE streaming ( id timeuuid, follower boolean, operation text, peers frozen<list<text>>, status text, progress_percentage float, last_updated_at timestamp, duration_millis bigint, failure_cause text, success_message text, bytes_to_receive bigint, bytes_received bigint, bytes_to_send bigint, bytes_sent bigint, files_to_receive bigint, files_received bigint, files_to_send bigint, files_sent bigint, status_ınıt_timestamp timestamp, status_start_timestamp timestamp, status_success_timestamp timestamp, status_faılure_timestamp timestamp, PRIMARY KEY ((id)))] reason: SyntaxException line 21:9 no viable alternative at character 'ı' at org.apache.cassandra.cql3.CQLFragmentParser.parseAny(CQLFragmentParser.java:48) at org.apache.cassandra.cql3.statements.schema.CreateTableStatement.parse(CreateTableStatement.java:465) at org.apache.cassandra.db.virtual.StreamingVirtualTable.<init>(StreamingVirtualTable.java:37) at org.apache.cassandra.db.virtual.SystemViewsKeyspace.<init>(SystemViewsKeyspace.java:47) at org.apache.cassandra.db.virtual.SystemViewsKeyspace.<clinit>(SystemViewsKeyspace.java:26) ... 4 common frames omitted
So, I changed my system language, re-created and deleted locales (switched from tr_TR.UTF-8 to en_US.UTF-8), and changed it from GNOME Settings too.
I use Ubuntu 24.02. In this error you see 'ı' (a Turkish character, i but without dot) used and Java basically couldn't find an alternative for 'ı' but the question is I just installed Cassandra. I didn't create this table. This is probably for Cassandra and created automatically (I haven't used Cassandra, this was about to be my first time but as you can see I got error).
Also, I tried other stable version 41x, same result. I completely removed /var/lib/cassandra and /var/log cassandra before install too.
My solution (I am currently trying to test): adding Locale.US to all toLowerCase(), toUpperCase() etc. Because my keyboard map affects it. I think we can fix this with this way.
